we discovered Mercury
rushing past the open window
a grateful 5th house,
a triangular exchange
foretelling karmic understanding
based on the stars,
a Virgo ascending,
the hope to redefine the world,
exchange skins,
and evolve together without walls
a grateful 5th house
a solitary Mercury
guided by Indus breezes,
heroic sunshine,
and further open roads,
gesturing forward
